My dog has severe skin yeast problems! Can Theralac be given to a dog? Worked great for my daughter's chronic yeast infections!

Dear Madster07, I really think that is a question for a veterinarian as I know dogs have different bacteria in their much shorter length intestines. It may be ok but it also might depend on the weight of the dog as well. Years ago we had pet Dwarf Lop-Eared rabbits. Our favorite one developed terrible seizures at about age 7. I researched and found that Melatonin 3mg daily helped control seizures in children. So I bought a good 3mg brand that was sublingual that had a pleasant fruit taste to it. Then I cut the tablets in 4 quarters as figured the bunny was at least a quarter the weight of a small child. I gave it one every day over the rest of its life and rarely had any seizures again. But since these are capsules and have to be taken on an empty stomach, I don't know how you would work that out. Good luck, hope you find relief for your pet.

I'm using what amounts to a heaping tablespoon for a dog the same size. However, it's a rescue that we are clearing up a mange problem on. I'd guess less would work if your dog's skin & coat are normal.

First, check the dosage and make sure it is correct for his weight. I'm giving Dasuquin to my 'almost' 12 year old Irish Setter. She started with 2 per day (1 in the a.m. & 1 in the p.m.) and is down to just 1 in the a.m. She has always had a sensitive stomach and takes Acidophilus (not a Rx) along with the Dasuquin. I also give all my Irish yogurt every a.m. It's possible the lactobacilius acidophilus would be helpful. This product has not seemed to bother my older girl.

NO! Take him to the vet right away. Anything coming out of the ear is bad. I have found this product works best when the yeast infection first starts when it is a little flaky, itchy and red with NO gunk coming out of the ear. Sounds like an infection but I'm not a vet but have had my share of dog ear infections and/or yeast infections.

Kibow Boiotics (E thermophilus, L. acidophilus, B. longum and psyllium husk)When I used it, it seemed to help my dog. She lived way longer than my vet expected!

For what it's worth ... My bichon frise tends to get smelly from skin yeast. Maybe because this breed has no undercoat and sheds very little. The chlorhexidine helps to control the yeast, the smell, and to some extent, the constant scratching.

No, I just checked the label and it clearly states "For Dog Use Only." I'd suggest TicTacs or Altoids to help with your problem. :-) j/k! If you need more info, I can take a pic of the label/instructions and email that to you. Take care!

I would ask the vet. You have to make sure that they don't get any of this in their mouth. That might be hard with a 3 1/2 month old puppy! If they already have a skin condition, I would get them to the vet.

DAD here, I found this from reading many many forums, the Doctor prescribed some antibiotic stuff for my daughter that did not work at all. After having this in her bottle for less than 2 days we saw a huge improvement. Thrush cleared up in less than 7 days and never came back. I rated this a 5 star, it helped my daughter when the "doctor perscribed" stuff did not.

Mam, We got rid of our dogs food and everything. We ended up having to put him down, a very hard decision. I will say the time he was on the Neutricks it did really seem to help him a lot, in NO way am I am I implying anything negative toward the product. Wish I had known about it years ago for our ageing shih Tzu. Your can find the product on the net. I do know some of the ingredients in Neutricks were mentioned by our vet. Give it a try, you'll see the difference for yourself.

i have never tried chlorhexidine....but i will say that micro-tek has really helped my dog.....he has suffered from a severe yeast infection....and with bathing him once a week with micro-tek and change of diet he is much improved..told my vet about the shampoo and she told me it has been what she has used on her pets....most important is to leave the shampoo on the animal for about 5 minutes before rinsing.......all the lesions on our dog are healing nicely......thank you micro-tek for an excellent product.....i ran out of it one time..and bought another anti-fungal shampoo......never again....our dogs skin and coat got very dry....got back online for our micro-tek.....our dog is happy and so are we ...hope this has helped

They sell this stuff at pet stores called Bitter Apple. I think you probably would be also able to find it on here. Just spray a little and it makes it bitter and dogs hate them. But I hope it won't deter them from peeing on the pads. I used it on furniture legs, corners of the wall etc when my baby was alive. RIP Annie..... :(

I have to be honest. I do not know. Never had my dog diagnosed with Cheyletiella. I have a Parsons Jack Russell Terrier. This shampoo is the first go to treatment that usually does the job before having to go the the vet. My dog occasionally gets a rash on his whole underside. Bumpy, red, and sometimes oozy. He's nerotic and can aggresively itch making the condition worse in matter of 3 days. Chest, armpit, belly and down to the insides of his hind legs. If I see him itching a lot for at least 2 days and see any signs of a rash, he gets a Malaseb Shampoo bath. It usually stops his itchiness quickly if done early, and the rash doesn't have time to progress. He loves the stuff. I truly think he associates the shampoo with irradicating the itchiness. I've put off a couple of times addressing his condition and the rash got bad. It took longer for the healing process, but it does work. During the warmer months, I also have him on Frontline treatment. He doesn't have fleas or ticks or lice problems, but it seems to help in preventing getting a particular skin mite. Sorry I couldn't help with addressing your specific question.

I purchased the flour to make shampoo (with baking soda) for my wonderful dog who has very sensitive skin. It has worked marvelously for that. I have not tried it for myself but wash him with my bare hands with good results for them.

This product is amazing.My Cavilier had a PH of 9. Surgery for a bladder full of stones. Surgery was in May. We use Ultra holistic food. Our vet said its a good food and just add liquid so we use probiotics and enzymes and add the solid gold as directed. I will sometimes give an additional dose but for the most part I follow directions. Our vet was amazed and happy with her numbers. In June she was at 5. Last time she was 6. Lola is a changed dog Our vet took the info off the container Good luck

I have not used this shampoo yet, but my Yorkie-Poos were on Atopica with minimal results, so I was told by a friend to try Nzymes, from nzymes.com, for their allergies and yeast. Just ordered it today, and on their site, it recommended this shampoo, along with several other shampoos. I have spent so much money at the vets, with no results. Really hopeful Nzymes will work. Go check them out on their website.
